Vietnam War Protest 1971 National Peace Action Coalition Original Pin Hippy P787

Description: DETAILS: Original pinback button issued by National Peace Action Coalition for a Vietnam War protest held April 4, 1971. Measures 1 3/4" inches. BACKGROUND: The National Peace Action Coalition (NPAC) was an umbrella organization composed of local and national groups and coalitions that opposed U.S. involvement in the war in Vietnam. Combined with the Student Mobilization Committee to End the War in Vietnam, its student arm, the National Peace Action Coalition represented the largest, best organized, and most generously funded of the anti-war groups. More important than its size and success in mustering supporters for large demonstrations, the formation of NPAC at the National Emergency Conference in Cleveland on June 19-20, 1970, acknowledged the growing split between various anti-war groups. These differences, which continued in varying degrees throughout NPAC's existence, focused on its affirmation of non-exclusion, the principle by which all opponents of the war were welcomed regardless of political ideology, and on its unwillingness to dilute the movement to encompass other social and political issues. In addition, NPAC's strategic commitment to peaceful mass actions set it apart from those groups that condoned confrontation tactics.
